When can I begin?

Why does Ecela cost more/less than ___?

Cost more - If we wanted to charge less we would need to make certain cutbacks - such as relocating to less safe neighborhoods, hiring less talented teachers, or putting more students into the classroom.

Cost less - As a language school we have far less overhead than, for example, a university, so can give as good, and by many accounts better, instruction at a much lower cost.

What is the payment process?

To reserve a spot you must pay a $300 deposit. After that nothing is due until four weeks before your first class.

You can pay everything by credit card.

What do you recommend before the program?

You can warmup to face-to-face learning with online Skype lessons, for example at Live Lingua﻿﻿.
